Sky Coaster Take 3

In the last 2 days i have spent 20 hours at Kentucky Kingdom Six Flags :) Now nothing can beat Six Flags New England but this was very close! The line were so short they let us stay on one ride 8 consecutive times...grease lightning. You were strapped in and shot off into a loop and straight into the air, then went backwards through the loop and back into the air...8 times. So amazing. Another ride we went on multiple times was tornado, and i think this could have been my favorite ride ever (other than superman)... you start off in water and swim to the tub, then once in the tube you are dropped about 50 feet at close to a 90 degree angle and into a funnel that spins and throws you up against the wall...needless to say SO fun. However the best of them all was the Sky Coaster which somewhat simulated skydiving (hopefully something ill be blogging SOON ;) anyways Abbey me and my father were strapped into stray jacket type things and then hoisted 187 feet into the air. The guy that worked it said that it was the second tallest in America, the first being one in Florida which my dad and i had already been on. Anyways so 187 feet into the air then 3...2...1..go! and i had to pull the lever that plummeted us into the ground and back again, kind of like a huge swing.

Therefore in spite of this wonderful experience i have made it my mission to ride the following roller coasters before i die... i know somewhat cheesy and cliche but still thrilling! here they are...anyone want to come along!
